As both new faces are born in 1997, they are expected to have a strong chemistry. International fans may recognize Nam Yoon Soo from Netflix drama Extracurricular, in which he played the role of Kwak Ki Tae.

Lee Daehwi and Han Hyun Min will leave the program after the broadcast today.

The new MCs, (G)I-DLE member Miyeon and model-turned-actor Nam Yoon Soo, are confirmed. A live broadcast will not be held next week because of the Lunar New Year holiday, so their first broadcast will be on February 18.
